Re: Introducing "Helios"
Congrats Scott & of course I would suggest ORANGE stripes! Your Camaro looks BEAUTIFUL! I bet you can't wait to "drop that top" 
Take care & see you over the summer somewhere here in Michigan at a car show.

Re: Introducing "Helios"
Very intriguing. I'll be on the lookout.
Since my muted suggestion of silver is not getting any traction, I'd go Cyber Grey as my new first choice.
Mudbone, Jr. says "orange or red". I agree, the right shade of red could be a great choice.

Re: Introducing "Helios"
What kind of a winter tires does Helios have?
It's too bad you didn't have the 2SS, those heated seats would come in handy!
I have to admit I love my 2LT for these winter days. I use Pirelli Scorpion Ice and snow tires on the stock rims. The car looks stock year round.
Oh are you going to the Michigan FBody Meet and Greet in Milford the previous weekend of Oshawa? I had fun last year and got my car signed by Al Oppenheiser.

I liked them so well that I put a set on Mom Settlemire's RS --
A 2SS would have been nice, but CTF vehicles are 'the luck of the draw' - and many of our drivers ended up with 1LTs and 2LTs - I'm very happy with Helios - I just need to get some stripes on him.........

Re: Introducing "Helios"
Your 'muted' suggestion was heard - am looking at some 'new' silver ones - that run down the side -but are not hockey stripes.............

Re: Introducing "Helios"
Very cool write up Scott! I was fortunate enough to ride in one!
wow what a ride! I want one lol
sounds like Helios is already a legend :-)
Hope to meet up with you soon this year, if not at the Cleveland show perhaps the Fall Classic?

Re: Introducing "Helios"
I'll second the silver on white theme. My favorite Challenger I ordered this year (I know, I know, wrong team ) was a black R/T Classic with the black R/T side stripes going down the side. The flat black stripes on a black car were SWEET...just enough contrast so you knew something was going on.
